Megan hiked 15.12 miles in 6.3 hours. if megan hiked the same number of miles each hour, how many miles did she hike each hour?

Equation: y = -3x -2

Graph: Attached below ↓↓↓↓↓

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation is y = -3x + b

We need B at this point.

Since we have a point given to us,( -2, 4)we can input the x and y

Solve:

4 = -3(-2) + b

4 = 6 + b

b = -2

So the equation we have is y = -3x -2

Let's graph the line.

We go 2 units below the x-axis, because the y-intercept is -2, and the slope is -3, so we go down 3 units, and to the right 1.
